Thinking of you, Shirley, Anjela and your entire family. So sorry for your loss. We are so glad to have had the opportunity to spend time with your family and Gary. I’ll remember many great conversations with him, when I was supposed to do a quick kid pick up and ended up in the yard or garage for an hour just chatting. I loved our discussions and his sense of humor. He will be missed terribly.
